''Nation Review'' was an Australian Sunday newspaper, which ceased publication in 1981. It was launched in 1970 after independent publisher Gordon Barton bought out Tom Fitzgerald's ''Nation'' publication and merged it with his own ''Sunday Review'' journal. ''Nation Review'' featured contributors such as Michael Leunig, Bob Ellis, Germaine Greer, Phillip Adams, Richard Beckett aka Sam Orr, Mungo MacCallum, John Hindle, Francis James, Patrick Cook, Morris Lurie, John Hepworth and Jenny Brown aka Zesta (now Jen Jewel Brown). The paper was self-styled 'The Ferret', fancying itself as 'lean and nosey'.〔(Purported retrospective digital website ) nationreview.com (Melbourne, Vic.)〕 ''Nation Review'' was aimed at Australia's new urban, educated middle class, providing mocking political commentary, offbeat cartoons, iconoclastic film, book, music and theatre reviews, and food, wine, and even motoring columns. The paper's satirical tone matched the style of Australian university newspapers like Honi Soit and Tharunka, from which publications many of its contributors and editors had indeed graduated. ''Nation Review'' editorial policy was egalitarian and anti-establishment. The paper was pro-Labor, or at least, pro political change but, after the Federal Labor victory of 1972, "disillusionment set in", according to former editor Richard Walsh. ''Nation Review'' survived several mergers and name-changes, only to expire because its readership's tastes had altered. Much of ''Nation Reviews best art and writing has been collected and published elsewhere. ==Notes== 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Nation Review」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
